Simple and does the job. We love it. We read reviews about assembling We didnt have any issues. My husband and I had it together in about an hour. I recommend using 2 people and keeping your parts organized. Also the instructions were very beneficial. The trickiest part was getting the support bars into their holes. We inserted them on one side completely and then played the other rail flat underneath the open ends. We then carefully turned the bar in unison and all the supports went right in. If you choose to buy this bed you will know what I mean when you get to that step. Only three of the support beams lock the others are free floating in the frame (which isnt a structural issue once its put together its just a mechanical puzzle to get it there unless you do our trick). This is in our teen girls bedroom and so far they love it. The bottom sister is picky in general and says she hasnt noticed once that her sister has rocked the bed. The biggest complaint we would have is that the rubber treads on the ladder are not super secure. The adhesive strip is not high quality but we will give it time to see if it will set in place better (think foam adhesive strip). We figured it would be an easy fix with gorilla glue if the treads dont stay on.
